Ohh 2018, what a year you were. I’ve been thinking for a while about whether or not I should do a more in-depth analysis of the year, but there’s a lot that happened that doesn’t belong on the internet. To be honest, if at the start of the year someone had told me everything that would happen? I would have told them to stop taking whatever drugs they’re on. Yeah, it’s been one of those years. So, sparing the personal details, here are some quotes that sum up this past year for me, what I’ve learned, and how I’ve changed and grown.
